Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

On Democracy and Bullshit with Hélène Landemore
Q: What if we gave everyone a voice? What if we got rid of these systems of intermediation?
We need representation, but it should be structured differently to include more ordinary citizens in decision-making.
On Democracy and Bullshit with Hélène Landemore
Q: What do you see as some of the problems around representative democracy?
The problem is that we've equated representation with election, and this has led to a plutocratic bias in policies.
Eric Lee, "The August Uprising, 1924: The Georgian Anti-Soviet Revolt and the Birth of Democratic Socialism" (McFarland, 2025)
Q: So, what is the initial spark behind the uprising?
The uprising was not triggered by a specific event but rather had been in preparation for months, motivated by widespread dissatisfaction with Soviet rule.
Eric Lee, "The August Uprising, 1924: The Georgian Anti-Soviet Revolt and the Birth of Democratic Socialism" (McFarland, 2025)
Q: What are some of the issues that lead up to August 1924?
